Omen the Streets.

There is nothing that the Council could
do that would give greater satisfaction
throughout the CITY than to open at once,
through the new addition, such streets as
1t is possible for it to open. 1t is we'll un-
derstood, of course, that some of those who
own property in the addition are not will
ing to aid the Council in this work, and,
perhaps, nothing can be done in those
parts of the addition In which their lands
are located, but there are portions through
which streets can be opened without de-
lay or trouble. These portions include
large area, and it would benefit the city
greatly to have this area opened to settle
ment.
Thousands of dollars would be invested
In lots in the new addition il there were
an opportunity to do so, and the building
OF houses there would be begun imme-
diately. A building boom would be
inaugurated which would be beneficial to
nearly all classes. Hundreds of mechanics
would be afforded employment, and the
demand for all kinds of building supplies
would be large. Money that is now Idle
in the savings banks and loan and Invest.
ment companies would be put into circu-
lation.
1t can be readily seen that the opening
Of streets in the addition would make
business much more active and greatly
increase the city's prosperity. There Is
plenty of idle capital in the city. 1t is
now desirable to get it into circula-
ton.
1t is folly to delay action in this matter
with the hope that all OF those interested
In the addition will agree with the Coun-
cll as to what is the proper thing to be
done. The Council might wait half a
century for such agreement without Sc
curing it. The proper course for the
Council to pursue is to go ahead ana do
what it believes TO be right, and what it
understands to be for the good OF the
whole city. Let such of the streets as 1t
is possible to open be opened at once, and
let those Of the property owners who are
now doing what they can to prevent ac-
ton OF any kind see that their opposi-
ton is matter of little consequence.

MIR. Samuel Randall and his more in.
innate lieutenants" didn't go to church
last Sunday. They spent the day pre-
pairing an "apple-jack" bill which they
desire Congress to consider. Apple.jack
is full of deception, and often gets those
who fool with it into trouble. In the case
of Mr.. Randall and his "more intimate
lieutenants" apple-jack may prove q
boomerang that will carry them little
further toward free trade than they wish

school House Ventilation

An article In the Sanitary Era, on the
subject of ventilation in school houses,
has this to say in relation to the
matter: LAS to ventilation, school
houses universally, even in our
wealthiest cities, are either made
quately or rudely supplied, the only
relief from close air being effected by
draughts OF air that are barely less per-
nicious.' The Era then refers 10 three
isolated cases in which provision has been
made for ventilation by u steady, uni
form suction of 20 cubic feet of
air per minute for every person, all the
air entering and leaving at regulated
and uniform temperature. This has been
doneln one public school In Boston, one
in Ionkers, and private school in New
York. This matter of the ventilation of
school rooms is TOO important consider
alton to be treated lightly. And yet. in
the South at any rate, it concerns US
only in the larger cities. Throughout
Georgia great improvement has been
made in the last few years, nearly every
town Of any pretension hay
ing handsome academy
erected at considerable expense. and with
every care for light and air. The old,
tumble-down log house, with its ungainly
clay chimney and chinks enough TO admit
any quantity of fresh air, is fast dsap-
pearing from public view, and with it the
old style of schoolmaster. In the cities.

G Il OF A COMPANY.
A J nd Case Involving a
Nebraska Cattle Or
ganizatior.
Selling a Pre-Empti n Eniry---Had
not Complied with the Lave
Therefore Thcy were Held
For Cancellation.

NtAlhN E,1
WASHINGTON, July 1S.-Acting Secre-
tary of the Interior Muldrow has decided
three cases involving the rights Of the
Northwestern Cattle company in the Nc
Cook, Neb., land district. In each case
q man had made a pre,emptidh entry and
then sold out to the Northwestern Cattle
company. An investigation by a special
agent OF the general land Office showed
that the entrymen have not complied
with the law, and 1t was evident that
they were merely tools of the cattle Com
pany. Thereupon they were notified that
there entries We're held for cancellation,
and opportunity was afforded them to
chow cause why the entries should not
be cancelled.
They paid no attention to these notices.
Lately, however, they joined the cattle
company in applications for rchearing,
ssld when refasea appealed TO ths secre-
terry
1t liz very evident that they paid no at
tention to the notices from the general
land Office because they had not made the
entries In good faith, and did not expect
to derive any benefit from making the
entries beyond what the cattle company
paid them. but TINT the cattle company.
learning afterward that the notices had
been sent out, made these men join In
trying to get the entries re established
because the compnny's claim rested on
nothing but the entries these men had
made. Mr.. Muldrow holds, however,
that the cattle company Is \ party In In
terest and should have been notified Of
the hearing, and directs the local land of
6cers to give the cnttle company a hear
Ing to prove II II can that the preemption

Wine From California.

Ban FRANCISCO, July 1a.-George
West, the well known ytntner, who has
just returned from New York, says that
California can find a market In the east
for every gallon of wine oyer three years
old. IN relation to this subject he said:
When In New York I investigated the
adyisability of having a wine warehouse
there. 1t would be an excellent plan
provided only that good wines We're SENT
to be stored there. II seems to me that
a ship load might be sent around Cape
Horn. A good sized vessel could Garry
$500 tons, or 500, 0Oe gallons. The liquor
would cost 20 cents at one year old and
transportation, insurance, interest and
storage in New York for two years and
other expenses weuld amount to ten
cents a gallon more. Wine at three
years should sell for 80 cents a gallon
leaving a clear profit of 20 cents a gallon,
or $1,000 0 in all. z The latest reports
concerning this years wine crop in CAL
ifornia state 1t to be only two-thirds of
last year, or between sixteen and seven
teen millions Of gallons.
